It could be more fuel to detonate is requiring a hotter spark and you have a
bad plug wire or cracked plug. It could also be the 'tone' of a vibration at
different load. Didn't you say that it still did it without the sensor? Is
the 'limp map' less retarded then the full 10 degrees?
I don't think the computer retards more then 3 degrees at a time now that I
think about it.
